Re: THEOLOGY PUB + Worship + Overnight service retreat + MORE!

Can you have faith without doubt?  Is Christianity more about what you believe, what you do, or something else?  What is the nature of God?

We want you to know that we honor doubt and see faith as being more about the journey than the destination.  This is why we live our questions together as we talk at our theology pubs, serve various agencies to do God's work on earth, and worship even amidst our struggles.  Let's meet each other where we are...


THEOLOGY PUB:  *new location* We'll gather *tonight* at the RATHSKELLER in the lower level of SUB1 to eat, drink, and talk about God, faith, religion, and how they intersect life in our world.  This is a safe, open conversation.  ALL are welcome, so bring a friend, order yourself dinner, and join in the conversation!  5:15pm on these Tuesdays: 10/13/2009, 11/10, and 12/1.  


747 CREATIVE CHRISTIAN WORSHIP:  We gather to worship including interactive discussion, song, prayer, and much more!  EVERYONE is welcome and we think everyone has valuable insights and things to offer.  Co-sponsored with United College Ministries.  Every Wedndesday at 7:47pm.  We're in SUB1 room B (3rd floor) this week, as usual.  Complete schedules at http://GMU747.org -- Facebook group: GMU747.


SERVICE RETREAT: ALL students studying in the D.C. metro area are invited to participate in an overnight service retreat at Mar-Lu-Ridge in Jefferson, Maryland on October 23-24.  It's a great chance to meet other students form the area, have some fun, spend some time outdoors, and to serve the world beyond your door.  Let us know if you are interested in going! 


FUN WITH KIDS: Playing games & tutoring elementary-aged kids a short walk from campus at the Main Street Child Development Center. 2-3:30pm on Monday 10/26.  Details TBA.


BIBLE STUDY: Starting Monday 10/26.  Details TBA.


Lord God, you know our doubts, and you meet us in our struggles.  Thank you.  Please continue to grow in us and inspire and lead us to work so that your realm is realized in our daily lives.  In Jesus' name, AMEN.
